  • Yeah, unfortunately he is not in prison for murder.

    He was jailed for failing to watch him fall from a window.

  • As long as the basic connections are an open design.

    It would be a great step towards multihead printing.

    Lets face it long term to gain the full ability of 3D printing. It will need to move to a multi material design. And that is likely to require the ability to change tool types mid-production.

  • I don’t think we need to pay the same as the US.

    The issue with that is at times like this. When economics are bad. The UK has a long history of emigration. And medical professionals are by far the most in demand worldwide.

    If this nation, dos'e not offer a competitive standard of living compared to other nations. Those that can leave will and always have.

    So yes, if you want to keep people in the field. You must either appeal to those from a lessor standard of living. Or raise yours to your competitor's level.

  • Actually its been a problem since at least the 1970s. When my father worked for a hospital as a charge nurse. He was paid to travel to nations to hire nurses. Mainly jamaca and a few others at the time. .

    This was a tume when all UK higher education was free.

    The issue is more about how much we pay nurses compared to other nations. Vs how shitty the job is.

    And you will notice we solve it the same way most other nations do. Recruit from nations that pay even less. Just like the US and AUS recruites from the UK we recruit from eastern wleurope africa etc etc etc.

    If you want to fix it without immigration. You need to pay UK nurses etc competitivly with the US.

  • Worth remembering the UK is one of the worlds largest legal cannabis exporters.

    And a number of MPs are known to be part ofbthe industory.

    So legalising recreational in the UK would also make it easyier for small competitiltors to compete with those larger companies.

    Like much of the restricted product industory. The complexity of licencingbmakes it advantagouse to the wealthy.

  • Then don't use terms like "records began" because that goes back to the beginning of the written word. Amd clearly since the invention of the printing press. 1960s is very recent.

    Also any polling is entirly manipulatable by the questions asked. Non of the polls you post are entirly unbiased. And have been used by the very currupt press from the dawn of mass advertising.

  • Consistently since records began British people have wanted less immigration.

    Immigration laws only applied to the UK from the 1970s.

    And even at that point it was never a majority that rejected immigration. There was a high anti German immigration movement before the first World War. But far from a majority of people cared.

    And at every point where attitudes to immigration was increasing. Economic issues were also connected.

    The majority of anti immigration event in UK history can very easily be linked to increases in the opinions being shared by newspapers owned and funded by wealthy production owners trying to silence working/poor people showing opposition to them.

  • Yeah that is often the issue.

    It is rare a single company owns all the IP on code. So its common that companies are not releasing code because they cannot.

  • Yeah any reverse engineering of closed source code takes time. It's a huge job on its own. Adding the need to avoid actions that may lead to legal issues.

    Well yep, It's very likely this may never round to a perfect replacement product.

    But it still has value. For starters, it will encourage new open source projects to use it rather than the propria try version, long before it's a direct replacement capable product.

    So the effort is worth some excitement. At least a pat on the back and free beer for some of the guys trying.

  • Hate to give excuses for these people.

    But nothing in these quotes would lead to legal proof that blocking traffic was the intent. It just leads to a group of 200 people trying to be noticed and avoiding police kettleing them.

    The 5 Just Stop Oil protesters were shown to have discussed limiting the travel of vehicles. Heck, as dumb as it sounds. The fact they allowed ambulances through, shows blocking other traffic, was an intentional part of the plan.

    Please remember, this is ion no way supposed to indicate I support the actions of these terrorists. Or oppose the actions of just stop oil. It is just a consideration o the actual legal justification in both cases.

    Some other evidence of the intent of the protests to limit the movement of traffic is needed in this case.

    Of course, with police filming and the number of phone vids made. Plus all the social media discussions leading up to the protests. That evidence may well become clear later on. But running onto the road to avoid police officers restricting their movements does not in itself prove a desire to limit traffic flow.

  • Mint is only interested in one metal.

    Others exist in e waste. Somi assume it would just be reduced price.

    Of course I am in no way agreeing the exporting of dangerous heavy metal waste etc is a good thing. Just not likely completely unwanted.

  • Love it. Fantastic how a silly joke can get the piint accross so well.

  • Worth considering. The law states that blocking traffic must be willful. So fairly easy to argue just atop oils whole purpose was to stop oil using cars.

    I did not see these protests. So the question is were the (terrorist in the case of the fash) protestors of either side attempting to block traffic or doing so as a result of gathering.

  • Those of us who grew up during the IRA bombing find that statement odd.

  • I'll add. Salination of the river is likely a greater risk. But still small.

    As rivers tend to have flow from high land too low. As they enter the ocean. The positive flow (current) prevents the brine area going to far into land.

    Because canals tend to only move water with navigation. At each lock there is less, preventing salt water mixing further up where the canal joins the river.

    Of course this is to some extent expected and modern canals can limit it. Simply by providing a current from the river going through weirs at each lock.

    Exactly as navigational canals used to move water do.

  • Threatening google does not seem like a wise political move.

    Of all the companies able to misuse data if motivated to. Google really could screw a campaign if the decided to care.

  • Hence why he used veg oil the second time.

    Interesting project. Can't think of anything where adhesive shrink wrap would not do a better job.

    But worth remembering for odd projects.

  • batshit crazy & desperate

    Hope so.

    Because otherwise its fucking terrifying. And honestly that is the better reaction.

    He is indicating at the least he plans changes that voting will not be able to change. At the worst plans to become a dictatorship.

    And given his attitude. The later seems more likely.

  • He will try. How hard it is without fixing the econ is the big question.

    So it will start as small changes.

    Compared to pass NHS. Yep its a dumpster fire.

    But folks still get treatment without going bankrupt. Even poor and homeless.

    So delays etc. Tends to still leave most better off then some places.
